Further exploring a medium he's long been drawn to, Dashiell Manley
creates five unique works on paper for our Cultured Commission.
Untitled, 2017, $1,600, one of
five unique oil and graphite
works on paper, (15" x 11.5").
75 percent of the proceeds from
each sale will be donated to
Planned Parenthood.
"The text is always kind off the cuff, usually relating to a single subject—something I'm thinking
about and using as a kind of platform to spring off of for the mark-making and the color. In
this case, I've been thinking about intercepted communications, radio waves, etc. The text is
important when it's legible, but also when it's not—just to know it's there. Things are covered
for a reason; it's done so intentionally."
